Reviewing the Levee Effect: From Theory to Practice
ABSTRACT Ongoing development in flood‐prone areas has intensified focus on flood‐risk management strategies. Constructed flood protections, like levees, lead to a false sense of security. Resulting development behind levees paradoxically increases flood risk, referred to as the levee effect.

Regional Flood Emergency Capacity Assessment Based on a Multidimensional Framework
ABSTRACT Knowing the status of emergency capacity for disaster risk reduction helps the government and stakeholders to minimize vulnerabilities and disaster risk. However, there is no widely applied methodology for emergency capacity assessment. This study develops a multidimensional framework integrating vulnerability, susceptibility, and adaptability

Integrated Hydrological and Hydrodynamic Modeling for Mountainous Flooding—A Case Study in China
ABSTRACT Flooding in mountain regions has caused significant economic loss globally. Due to the complexity of mountainous flooding, that is, heavy runoff, landslides and debris flow, and limited monitoring data, it is extremely difficult to simulate and predict such events.
